| “Hi, Sailors. You guys wanna come over Friday or Saturday for pizza and toddytown? You can tell me all about your voyage [our recent Danube Riverboat Cruise].” Our friend Scott lives one street over, so we could stumble back-and-forth, and Bob made a caprese salad to go with Scott’s pizza. |
On Saturday evening, neighbors Patrick and John had us over for dinner. They, too, live one street over, and it was our first time in their beautiful home. Along with their friend Ruffin and our mutual friend Guy, we enjoyed delicious food and good company, and the conversation flowed easily. |
My years-long friend, Al, who is also our BearCruise cruise director whenever we travel with that group, invited us to his pool party on Saturday. We didn’t make this one, but we’ve been to several past ones, and it’s always a good time — and a great impetus for day drinking. |
